AN OPEN LETTER
To Hon. IL. Gibbs.
Hon. Barnett Gibbs, Dallas, Texas:

Hon. Barnett Gibbs, Dallas, Texas:
DEAR STR:Ll heard, with no small
degree of interest, your speech against
prohibition, and have since read it
carefully as it appears in more careful
form in the Dallas News. And now.
| address you this open letter in no
capiious spirit, for the purpose of
drawing you out, if possible, on the
application of the argument you have
made to one or two things, VIC as a
government arc already committed TO-.
You argue on this subject like a fair
minded man, and you appear to be
sincere and striving to be just. Hence,
hope you may answer this letter in
the same spirit of candor and fairness
with which t is addressed to you.
take it that. the strength of your
position is Stated in the words : at is
question whether a government set
up by Tree people for the exclusive
purpose ofproiecting them in their
lives, liberty and property, will after
years of successful operation go fur
Their and prescribe the personal habits
of a portion Of its citizens And You
repeatedly refer to the prohibition
amendment as "thc entering wedge TO
an entirely new SYSTEM" IA new feat.
uro of government" etc; and you say
that @Prohibilionisis admit that the
adoption, o. this principle will be a
radical innovation in our political
s. stcnl.g
Now / am perfectly willing TO grant
that our government, National and
state was established for the objects
you name To protect the citizen in
hi.iic. liberty aud property; or, in

ment departing from what you lay
down us the fundamental principle Of
its life, in one instance, and oppose
another departure, not more radical
in its nature, though different in kind,
Really, Mr. Gibbs, las government, have
we not radically departed from the
principles of government bequcathcd
us by our fathers? know that some
of the most thoughtful political econ
omists OF the age are troubling them
selves with reflections on the fact, aud
are calculating already how long ii
will take the new principles on which
we have started to bring us into The
monarchical form of government.
But am not saying whether any de
parture from the old Amcric IN doe
trine of government is best. or not; |
am seeking to show you that the de-
parturc is already made, and that we
are far on the road to other changes:
and | am seeking to have you OK
plain why you favor one departure.
ii you do, and set yousclf 50 strongly
against another.
Again, have we not literal y ana
absolutely as a state committed our
selves TO the doctrine of prohibition!
The principle may not be engraiied
into the constitution of the state, but
it is incorporated in statewide
statute. refer TO the law pro-
hibiting the carrying of concealed
weapons. There can be no difference
in principal between the action OF
state in enaciiug a statewide law, or
in ENGRAVING tile matter of the law in
her constitution. IL it were uncon-
stitutional il could not be legal. Now
then the vast state of Texas has al
ready committed herself TO legislation
prohibiting the free citizen the nat
